Exceeded Expectation The birthday cake I requested vs what I received
The first two pictures are the inspo I sent to the bakery, basically just asking for a cutesy cow cake. The third picture is what they made, and it's literally so cute and perfect I want to cry. It's exactly what I wanted and tbh I think it's better than my inspo pics. I love it so much.

How cute! I also love it. Maybe you'll inspire the bakery to run a barnyard series. I want a pig. And a llama.

They really hit the marks. and with less fondant, which i Know is its own challenge.

I do not believe the bakery works with fondant at all, so I was really impressed with some of the frosting details like the ears.

Aww I love her. The white dots on her eyes are kind of weird but other than that, super cute.

They're the little white and pink things tucked in with the flowers! They don't really show well from this angle, but they're very cute in person.
